Debugging Support in Rust Compiler - Overview and Extensions

Explore a comprehensive overview of Rust's debugging capabilities in this 53-minute conference talk by Tom Tromey, the developer behind Rust support in gdb and the rust-lldb debugger. Gain insights into the integration of Rust with popular debuggers like gdb and lldb, and learn about the necessary steps for extending the DWARF standard to accommodate Rust-specific features. Delve into topics such as LDB, Dwarf, Windows debugging, Dwarf traits, operator overloading implementation, PDB, macro stepping, and Rust name mangling. Enhance your understanding of Rust's debugging ecosystem and the ongoing efforts to improve developer tools for the language.
